Going back a little.

I'm pretty certain Bush the Lesser is the worst president of the last 106 years. I'm shakier on the 19th century though.

John Scalzi [link] argues that Bush Jr. is the worst president since James Buchanan, but that Buchanan still retains the title of worst overall.

Of course, a civil war or two in the next couple of years might change the calculus somewhat.

It's snowing here. Somebody hold me.

I liked the Gilmore Girls more than I've liked an episode in a long time. Minimal Zach and Kirk, and still a funny wedding. For a moment last night, I thought that Lorelai and Christopher were going to end up being the end of season wedding. Lorelai's dress was gorgeous.

Bush the Lesser

That's good, I also submit "George the Unready."

I came for some advice from whoever might know. My brother has plantar fascitis in his foot and wants his doctor to write him an exemption from working overtime on concrete floors. Will that work? Are there any laws that help? His company makes everyone work 20 hours of overtime a week, so they won't want to let him off and make an example. How might they fight it?

It's snowing here.

That's just gross, and wrong.

I know!! It's more like slush falling from the sky than actual snow, but equally depressing.

Ouch Noumenon. Don't know if it will work, but he should give it a try. The concrete must be killing his poor feet. Then again, I have known people that pounded (literally) their feet to relieve the plantar fascitis pain with success.

Snow! Yuck.

Sick belly, yuck.

Um, congrats to Tom & Katie. Suri Cruise? Not the worst name I have heard, not the best either.

Looks like a good deal. Not quite right for Buffistaville though. Buffista Island a better plan.

Yikes I looked at the pictures of the Tram stranded people [link] and really there is not a chance that would ever happen to me because there is no way I would ever get on a Tram like that. I'd swim the East River first.

Perkins, I hope your stomach shapes up and quickly.

I'm slightly dizzy this morning, but not enough, I think, to stop me from driving in an hour or so.

Sue, I thought the wedding was very sweet, although I wish they'd explained what the argument with the grandmother was --it was obviously predictable to the characters, but I felt like I missed something. There was also minimal use of the townspeople considering, but I really missed the hot boys and hated the oh-so-predictable outburst of Lorelai's poorly managed resentment. And what set her off seemed so minor, all told.
